B. Annual Comprehensive Fee Schedule for FY 2010.11
The City provides various individualized services that are not of general benefit. Historically,
many of these services have been provided at a cost greater than the price being charged
for them thus resulting in subsidies of the remaining costs of service from the general
taxpayers. As a matter of routine fee maintenance and to keep pace with increasing costs of
individualized services, the fees charged to users need to be reviewed on a regular basis,
preferably each year.
Rosemead's business license fees have not been adjusted for some 18 years, and are
proposed to be adjusted gradually, over the next three years. Increasing business license
fees to appropriate levels in a single year could present a hardship in some cases; therefore,
adjustments intended to be consistent with the County's fee structure can be phased over a
three year period. However, it is important to note, with all the fee increases, that the
proposed fee adjustments and new fees never exceed the cost of providing the service.
In the interest of being responsive to the service needs of Rosemead residents and
businesses; not all fees need to be increased and some are controlled by statute.
Consequently, not every Rosemead fee is being recommended for an adjustment this year.
Recommendation: That the City Council approve Resolution No. 2010-33, entitled:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD, CALIFORNIA,
UPDATING FEES AND CHARGES FOR SERVICES FOR FY 2010.11
